  • Patent number: 11778338
    Abstract: An image presentation method includes obtaining a first image and a second image having same contents; size-processing the first image according to at least one of a target resolution, an aspect ratio of the first image, or an aspect ratio of the second image to generate a size-processed first image having the target resolution; generating a presenting image at least by combining the size-processed first image and the second image; and encoding the presenting image in a code stream and transmitting the encoded image to the display device that requires the preset resolution for display. The first and second images include a visible-light image and an infrared image. The presenting image has a preset resolution no less than a sum of the target resolution and a resolution of the second image. The size-processed first image and the second image are arranged in the presenting image without partially blocking each other.
